Come and help us develop and maintain the awesome trails in the FoD.
To volunteer you must be over the age of 18. Anyone between 14 -17 wishing to join us on a dig will need to attend with a supervising adult.
For new diggers
- Meet us at the DTV container (left of the Pedalabikeway Café)
- Wear something you don’t mind getting dirty
- Wear comfortable sturdy boots
- Bring gloves (gardening/building), waterproofs, sunscreen and insect repellent, a mask (for the briefing)
- Bring a bottle or water and maybe some tea/coffee and snacks as we are sometimes digging away from the cycle centre
- Don’t worry if you haven’t been on a dig with us before, you will be paired up with someone who has and we can show you what to do
- You will be given a hi viz vest to wear for the day and safety briefing before you start
Digs start at 9.30am, and usually run until 12.30pm depending on the project being worked on.
If you have any questions ahead of your dig, then please get in touch with us - either via our Facebook page, or on admin@deantrailvolunteers.org.uk
If there are any issues on a dig that you would like to raise, please raise these directly with the Dig Lead on the day. If you don't feel comfortable raising it with the Dig Lead, then please contact either the Chairperson or Vice Chairperson of Dean Trail Volunteers via email: admin@deantrailvolunteers.org.uk
We look forward to digging with you!
The DTV Team
